| 裏面の説明 | Inscription in five lines within a wreath of laurel or olive branches tied at the base, reading the names and titles of the two duoviri: C. Servilius, son of Caius, and M. Antonius Hipparchus, who served as IIviri (duoviri) of the Roman colony of Corinth. The wreath is neatly rendered with detailed leaf pairs on either side. The encircling legend records the magistrates' names and colonial title, a standard format for Corinthian colonial bronze coinage of the Augustan period. |

This issue belongs to a small group of Corinthian bronzes struck to commemorate — or more precisely, to flatter — Augustus following the conferral of the title *pater patriae* in 2 BC. Corinth, refounded as a Roman colony by Julius Caesar in 44 BC, had particular incentive to demonstrate loyalty; its civic identity was Roman by design, not absorption, and its magistrates understood the value of timely numismatic gestures.
RPC I 1137 is attributed to a local duovir issue, a magistracy that controlled the colonial mint.
